However, we will continue to concentrate on Raul, who also had his personal physical fitness problems with his shoulder that guide to a numbness on the ideal side of his system, that in some approaches contributed to his crash final 7 days.

“First of all, I want to say that we are very energized to go to Argentina, specially because Aprilia gained listed here final 12 months. We hope to be ready to do a thing comparable with 1 of the Aprilia riders. We experienced good pace in Portimao and of course he has been pretty unfortunate with the crash of Miguel, getting in a very potent place, but only finishing two laps in the primary race, is clearly pretty disappointing. Wanting forward to this weekend, Raul uncovered a great deal previous weekend pursuing strong riders and getting a great rate. Unluckily, he pushed a little bit way too tricky hoping to get a couple of additional details at the end of the race. But it is all about the learning curve. He is on a good way and in a great flow. We have only Raul as a rider here in Argentina and hope Miguel will come back again in Austin. Anyway, all doors are open up in Argentina. Raul is rapid and the Aprilia was pretty quickly here final yr, so we really should try to hold the momentum, likely ahead, likely faster and try to even further improve in all areas.”
